Aspartame safe says FDA

The point is that, if you juice a cashew fruit and use the juice as a coloring agent you also get cashew fruit juice flavor, etc.  If you only want the color, you must take more intensive steps.  The end result is that you end up with something "artificial" because you have extracted and refined the coloring agent.  Is there any difference between a coloring agent extracted from cashew fruit and a coloring agent with the same molecular composition made by chemical synthesis?

I agree that processing isn't always a big deal.  But, then again, I also think that making something out of "chemicals" (as if everything weren't made out of chemicals anyway) isn't always a big deal either.

We're in agreement.
